COVID cases in Dearborn have risen some in recent weeks, and the free clinic is an opportunity for students, staff, family members and residents to give themselves extra protection against the virus that is still disrupting lives in the community.
Anyone older than 12 who was already vaccinated against COVID is eligible for a booster five months after their second dose of the initial Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations.
Anyone age 50 or older may get a second booster four months after their first booster. Those age 12 or older who are moderately or severely immunocompromised are also eligible for a second booster, as are those who live with someone immunocompromised or who are at increased risk of exposure due to their job or activities.
